Initial proposals were unveiled by Richard Handbury, who is part of the traffic and safety service for Amber Valley, Erewash Borough and South Derbyshire, at the recent Melbourne Area Forum.

Mr Handbury said there was not enough on-street parking and businesses were suffering from congestion, which was causing issues with deliveries.

He said the county council could bring in more parking wardens, but they could only manage a limited number of locations in the area at a time.

Mr Handbury said he was seeking a "self-policing" system, where Derby Road, Chapel Street and Potter Street could be made one-way and traffic kept away from Packhorse Road, where Melbourne Infant School and Melbourne Junior School are located.
